Hey, who is watching this? I need to get caught up on the first episodes. Anyone have copies of about the first half or more? Will pay S&H and buy a jump ticket for you at your dropzone.

I'm trying to do the same thing because everyone keeps raving about how good the show is.

If you've got Sci-Fi channel, they are re-broadcasting it and are doing a marathon this Wednesday - I have my TiVo set to record it and I think I will be able to get all of the episodes that way.

I have been watching from the start. I am pretty impressed with it.

Course it figures I just cleared out my DVR :S

Oh Dope! I'll be at my parent's place and can set their DVR for that. Thanks.



Ooops, check that, it's NEXT Wednesday, November 29 that they are doing the marathon.

I've yet to watch an episode, but have heard good things. Should I just wait for the complete season to come out on DVD? Wait...if it's already airing on Sci-Fi, does that mean it's now in its second season?

Nope they are just rebroadcasting the previous weeks episodes... in case people missed in on the original night.

As Scott said, nope... first season, still. I'm hoping if I pick up the first few next Wednesday, I can TiVo the rest of them as they're broadcast, and have a big old viewing marathon the last couple weeks of December when I'm "working from home" and don't expect to have a ton to do.:)

I found last night that ABC is not broadcasting the show in high def here yet. Us bumfuck people still don't rate full HD attention from 3 of the 4 major networks (we do get NBC). I probably would have known this earlier if I hadn't decided to let Lost run it's course with me on the sidelines just waiting for the DVDs. Anyhow, it ain't in high def here, so Heroes is gonna get the same treatment. ;)

Considering the show is on NBC it would make sense that ABC is not broadcasting it in high def. :D:D Also, awesome show.

Ha ha! Ouch! I guess I should have checked the listing instead of just looking for ABC and saying "fuck it" :D

You can actually watch all the episodes on your computer from the http://www.NBC.com/heroes website. They've got the entire episode and from the 1st to lastnights. All online. You do get commercials, BUT not 2 or 3 mins like on broadcast TV. About every 7 or 8 mins there is a 30sec commercial.

Holy. Moly.

This is some damn fine television. I've spent the entire day curled up on my couch catching up on all the episodes. I just finished #7.

I agree. I'm gone Mon-Fri, but it's Tivo'd for me when I get home. Then it gets transfered to my lappy, and taken with me to be watched on the road. (This also means I have all the episodes for DVD's.... Like my Lucky Louie collection!)

Yeah, what did we do before Ti-Vo?

So, do you guys have a favorite character?

I'm really impressed that when we see Hiro in the future his English is much better, but in the present he has such a strong accent. Good characterization.

Personally, I want to be the split personality blond - every now and then you just have this voice in your head that says - what the hell, let's go kick some ass! :o

Me too! It's quite a luxury to have a quiet weekend at home to sit and watch some TV on a normal-size screen. I hadn't been watching Heroes at all, but heard such good things about it that I made sure that TiVo picked up all the episodes on the Sci-Fi channel's marathon last Wednesday. And watched them all tonight. I've got to go meet friends now, but I have one more to watch and then I'm caught up and can watch tomorrow night's live (or "TiVo live", meaning I start 20 minutes into it). B|

I thought last weeks 6 month re-cap was the finale? There is a new one tonight?



Nope, there's a lot more scheduled.
